Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Galax provides medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
